Retaliation is a virus in the body of the American body politics and a stigma to the political process. Instead for the US representatives or Senators vote their conscious and the interests of his/her constituency they are intimidated through steps of retaliation to ignore all that and follow the orders of the orders of the party bosses or Donald Trump himself.

Donald Trump is best shooter in town and you better believe it. Walk straight in line or you will raise my ire and be responsible for your actions or lack of actions.  The list is impressive and here are some ducks who swayed of line when marching. James Comey refused loyalty pledge. FBI director Jeff Sessions recuses himself from Russia meddling of American presidential 2016 investigation. Trump he wanted a man who would protect him.

The Post reported that a person close to Trump said he asked about how firing Sessions "would play in the con...

Observers are watching carefully the unavoidable head to head and anticipated collision between  President Donald Trump and Special Counsel Robert Mueller. For Trump he is calling for Mueller to cut it out and investigate only his election campaign ties or contacts with Russia or Russians whether, they are officials or ordinary ones. Trump yells do not go beyond that and do not widen your scope of investigation, No, No and one hundred No's. On the other hand Mr. Robert Mueller is a long career attorney and Former FBI director wants to put his teeth deeply and bite on broader issue of the Trump whole financial empire and his dealings with foreign countries and internationals corporations. This may cause tremendous pressure on Trump and splitting his time between his special duty as president and on the other hand the headache of Mr. Mueller and expanded investigation to land of no where.  Mr. Trump will like to end all that with Firing Mr. Mueller. This  may lea...

President Donald Trump averaged 38.8% job approval during his second quarter in office, which spanned April 20 through July 19. No other president has had a worse second-quarter average. Bill Clinton is the only other president who fell below the majority level of approval at a comparable point in his administration. Most presidents were still in the honeymoon phase of their presidencies during their second quarter, and enjoyed approval ratings above 60%, with John Kennedy and Dwight Eisenhower both above 70%. The average approval rating for elected presidents in their second quarter is 62%, meaning Trump's support is 23 percentage points below the historical norm. From a broader historical perspective, Trump's second quarter ranks 250th out of the 287 presidential quarters in which Gallup has assessed job approval since 1945. That ranking places Trump's second quarter in the 13th percentile of all presidential quarters, meaning only 12% have been worse -- mostly for...

كثيرة هي تصريحات المرشح الجمهوري دونالد ترامب المعادية للمسلمين، والتي ليس بها خط فاصل بين الإسلام المعتدل والإسلام المتطرف، مما جعل مرصد الأزهر في أحدث تقاريره يدين تلك التصريحات ويتهمها بأنها تسبب الكثير من حالات العنف داخل المجتمع الأمريكي؛ حيث قال مرصد الأزهر الشريف في أحدث تقاريره: "إن معاداة المسلمين بالولايات المتحدة في ارتفاع دائم منذ بداية الانتخابات الرئاسية الأمريكية بسبب تصريحات المرشح الجمهوري دونالد ترامب، الذي صرح بنيته لحظر دخول المسلمين، وتصريحه بضرورة غلق المساجد إثر عمليات إرهابية في عواصم مختلفة، وهو ما أدى إلى ارتفاع نسب الهجمات على المساجد بالولايات المتحدة؛ حيث كانت المساجد هدفا في نصف العمليات التخريبية بالبلاد منذ تلك التصريحات وحتى الآن". وقدم المرصد تحليلًا اعتمد فيه على ما نشر حول مقتل أحد الأئمة في نيويورك؛ حيث نقلت وسائل إعلام عديدة بالولايات المتحدة الأمريكية- منها "الواشنطن بوست" و"سى إن إن" و"نيويورك تايمز"- أن إمام مسجد الفرقان "علاء الدين أكونجى" البالغ من العمر 55 ع...

The US Supreme Court plays blind and bless the flagrantly biased Donald Trump Muslim entry ban on Muslims entry to the US under the stupid guise, National Security. The guy said in election rally that he will stop all Muslims entry to the US with thunder applause of who attending the rally. It is  a fact that there about 60 million Americans who hate Islam to the core and they were thrilled and this was music to their ear, particularly the Evangelists, the Southern Baptists, the Born Again and millions of Catholics. The US Supreme court decision with nine to zero votes is disgusting. Under the banner of national security, would the justices approve all the left handed will be barred from entering the US if the US president decree that. Will the US Supreme Court with its infinite wisdom approve that?
